Battlestar Galactica: The Face of the Enemy - Webisodes

Seeing as how webisodes are treated as spoilers when discussing traditional episodes, I thought I would start a thread on the recently completed Web series.

What do you think Gaeta is up to?

OK I've watched 10, how many are there ?

I'm confused by the timeline, why is "Cylon Tech gonna keep the fleet moving" when they already found earth (barren as it may be).

If 10 is the final show then I can't see how this story can carry over since many people won't have seen it ??

10 is the final show.

I'm assuming that the next real episode has a jump ahead in time to after they've left Earth, with flashbacks revealing what happened there.

And I suspect that in the end, what happened in Face of the Enemy will only serve as a little background to stuff that will go on in the main show, but won't be essential.

Remember this takes place about 9 days before they find Earth. so the comment makes sense since they have not found Earth and have no idea that they are about to.

Hmm that is a possibility, but I think the webisodes made some major cuts in characters that will have to be explained in the main series.

How can I remember when I didn't know

Which main characters are cut ?? The 8's were not Sharon right and there's plenty more. I'm not sure we knew the other crew well.

Yeah, I think they were all pretty disposable.

It takes place on days 6-9 after they find Earth.

I've only watched the first 7...they used to be on demand with Directv but now I can't find them at all...

watching them on the web has been terrible...I guess my internet speed is too slow or something...argh...

That really doesn't make any sense having watched the first ep of the new season or in the scenes of the webisodes themselves.

It starts at the end with quick flashes of what's happened.


Then it jumps back 3 days to the beginning of the events.
